2.4 technical Data (required by cE)

a. Process:
Manual torch used for plasma arc cutting
b. Method of guidance:
Manual
c. Voltage class:
M (113v peak to 400v peak)
Striking voltage: 8000 VAC
Stabilizing voltage: 200 VDC
d. Maximum rated current: 50 amps
Maximum current at 100% duty cycle: 50 amps
Type gas: Air 120 I/min. at 5.5 bar (254 cfh at 80 psi)
e. Max. and min. gas pressure at inlet: 4.8 to 5.9 bar (70 to 86 psi)
f. Type of cooling:
Air
g. Rating of auxiliary electrical control in torch:
N/A
h. Requirements for connection of torch:
Wrenches and screwdriver
i. Essential information about safe operation of torch:
Refer to all safety precautions in manual
j. Essential information about safe operation of the plasma cutting torch and the functioning of interlocking and safety
devices:
Meets requirements by means of pneumatic interlock safety system. The interlocking device deenergizes the torch
when parts, particularly protective cone, are removed to expose electrode connection. For the interlocking device
to function properly, the torch electrode must remain in the protective cone. Do not attempt to install the electrode
into the torch without first placing it in proper position (with the other parts) within the protective cone.
k. Type of plasma cutting power source that can form a safe system with the plasma cutting torch:
PCM-500i, PowerCut 650, HandyPlasma 550, HandyPlasma 380, HandyPlasma 250, HandyPlasma 50 and Caddycut.
I. Plasma cutting ability:
